Terri is the manager of Canadian Fine Arts in Toronto who organized RRh’s preview exhibit in September, 2011. She is also a wonderful painter.

One of her paintings entitled Cool Spring Day ( a portrait of her partner Cap) was in the 2011 Gwanghwamun International Art Festival (GIAF) in South Korea.

Recently the festival decided to purchase the piece for its permanent collection. Well done Terri!!!
